Cougar on the ParkWay

I love driving my car when i have a day off from work just to clear my mind and to take me back in time when life was good.

Anybody who drove or rode in one of these classic muscle cars back in it's hey day know what im taking about you stayed in these cars all day and night on the weekends with your girl or your friends and had a great time like going to the drive-in movies in White Stone Queens when i was a kid and Westbury Long Island when i was Driving my first car and every other nice car i had with my girl friend and friends until they closed all of them down. which if i hit lotto i would bring back.White Castles use to bring out your food in a all white uniforms. Girls in a not to short white mini-skirt with the girls hat and the guys in white pants with the white hat on roller skates in the summer time and they put your order of food on the window of your car and came back to take the tray off your car with a thank you for the tip and a smile in the mid 60's to early 70's in the Bronx New York on Webster Ave my aunt Pat from Asbury Park New Jersey use to come to the Bronx every weekend or we would go to visit my cousins in Asbury Park New Jersey and go to the Boardwalk every weekend it was like Coney Island back then all of us from the Bronx and Queens on the weekends went to New Jersey or they came to New York, she had a 1966 or 1968 Ford fairlane Station wagon that was mint everything worked the back seat was where the little kids rod.The back door went down and sideways the back window was electric and worked every time she hit the switch. The whole family would go to white castle on the weekend kids and all the adults,i was in the 5th grade back in 1970 so i know that they did this from the mid 60's to the early 70's.
